IN REFERENCE TO YOUR VIGILANTE POST TAGS. "CATTY OLD MEN GOSSIPPING". DO YOU REALISE THE BOX OF PANDORA YOU JUST OPENED TO MY MIND. THAT IS AMAZING.

Heehee ☺️

I have no idea if theres like a term for this, but like, where i used to live (bronx projects babeyyyy) you would have lots of old ladies and men sitting outside their apartment complexes, talking for HOURS on end. And in front of some shopping areas underneath trees it was SPECIFICALLY old men in like their 70s just kinda vibin in the shade and talking to each other. My dad called them pigeons bc there were so many of them and they chatted (cooed) at each other for hours n hours. Which i thought was cute (i love pigeons rhfjfbdjdbd) and the men were very nice to me; very old cuban and puerto rican men who asked how my day was and asked if i wanted to play dominos or checkers w them. (There was a group of older black men that would play old 80s hits and play chess too ☺️)

ANYWAY i am saying this bc when i think of catty old men, i think of that group of men i saw almost everyday for 20+ years of my life 😭 they could be SO mean and with the little bit of spanish i did know, i could hear them talking shit about people on the block😭 but they were very nice to most people, u literally just had to say hi and they would smile super wide

Peppino clocks out and hes like “i got plans today, sorry.” And its him going to the saloon in the desert to go get drinks with vigilante and like Other Old Cheeses or something, like thats his idea of a good time; talking shit about people he doesnt like with OTHER people who are eager to hear him shittalk (and vice versa) 😭 he doesnt get shitfaced, hes just there to relax and listen to Vigilante get in a tizzy about some bounties givin him a hassle. And sometimes Vigilante comes along with his group of friends to the Pizzeria instead and they all settle down after hours and drink 😊

alright, i scribbled this out with no references (hence why finn's car is blank oop) but like!!! Simon needs to move tf out of that display house i would go insane if i had to live in a house with unironic live laugh loves signs hanging everywhere. I came up with my idea of what place Simon should move into

the text is small and the quality might not be good unless you click on the image.

the main idea of this being simon getting a nice place for himself that's out of the way of foot traffic but is still clearly steeped in the love and presence of the people around him. It's an abandoned wizard tower because in my mind (and my heart) simon is still friends with the crabapple gang and they found this place for him. It's got weird magic probably soaked into the bricks so i don't have to explain how everything can fit inside one building.

Marcy's got a room and it's just got like, random crap that she brings over (she rarely stays there, she's got her own house but the room is still hers.) Finn was offered a room but he likes sleeping in the greenhouse. He got a hammock in there :)

thinking of how umemiya is so strong and so in control that he barely flinches at how you yank on his hair or scratch up his back or sink your teeth into his shoulder because the pleasure is just too much for your body to contain UGH and he’s just talking you through it all

I mean the man can handle Choji sinking his teeth in, his pain tolerance must be insane. It would be irritating how composed he can be if you weren't out of your mind with how he's rearranging your guts

okay so i saw that post that said "to be loved is to be changed, but in a horrific and unasked for transformation" and this is so snotacon both sides to me.

I mean, think about it. Otacon can't *kill* someone when Snake meets him, and that's true in two ways. Yeah, physically he's a spindly litte nerd who literally couldn't hurt someone if his life depended on it, but he couldn't do it mentally either. He designs weapons. That's a far cry from actually *using* them. He's a pencil pusher who wanted to build giant robots and was willing to believe that MG Rex wouldn't actually be used.

How long do you think *that* lasted, living, working with a mercenary? At what point do you think it sunk in that if he wanted to actually achieve anything with Philanthropy he was going to have to be okay with lethal force being involved?

Surely we don't think everything was non-lethal up to the tanker? I mean, he has to explain the tranqs work at the beginning of the mission, so it's probably new to him, right? So what were they doing before that? And they don't ask themselves if they should pull out when it becomes apparent that lethal force may be necessary, so clearly these won't be the start of Philanthropy's body count.

So when was the point that he resigned himself to the fact that he was going to have to be a lot closer to death and direct killing than he ever had been before? Did Snake insist on having final judgment off the bat? Did Otacon try to convince him that they needed to do it non-lethally, did they run a mission, maybe even a few come off clean, only for something to go terribly wrong? Did they get out by the skin of their teeth? Did Snake have to kill someone, and Otacon get upset by this first death? And did they have an argument where Snake points out that he is the one that has to pay the price for Otacon's personal mission against killing?

:)

But that's all so obvious. Killing is bad, etc.

What about Snake?

I think the idea of caring for anyone is scary to him. Especially the extent to which he cares about Otacon.

I mean, half of his utility is in the fact that he just doesn't give a shit about himself, and has nobody left that gives a shit about him. He doesn't have anything to hold him back from giving 110% to the mission. If he dies, he dies. What does he care? He's a washed up alcoholic with PTSD previously known only to shrimps.

And he clearly values his utility. Even in 4, it's how he refers to himself. "An old killer." What use is he if he's concerned about whether he'll make it home in one piece.

When do you think that sinks in to him? Do you think was the first time Otacon told him to drop the mission and get back safe when things took a turn? Do you think he'd ever been in a situation where someone cared more about his life than whatever they were sending him to do? Do you think Kaz even pretended to genuinely care about his safety in the field? Forget Campbell, that's right out, he couldn't even let Snake be as he's fucking dying. Do you think he tried to finish it out first, only for Otacon to beg and scream at him that he was serious?

Or do you think it was when he got hurt, badly hurt, and he sees Otacon sitting over him at night, making sure he's okay, changing his bandages, and out of the corner of his eye he sees a hand wipe away tears, or hears a quiet sniffle, because Otacon realized how close he was to losing Snake.

Or maybe comms get cut unexpectedly during a shootout, and he gets sidetracked, held up somewhere, makes it back to the rendezvous point just under the wire, and Otacon is bawling because he really thought he lost Snake for good this time.

Do you think Snake realizes that at first? Do you think he's too obtuse to realize the tears are over him? Are from fear for him?

At what point do you think he realizes that the numbness he's fostered, that's been intentionally fostered in him (remember, he's the "Cipher-backed son", he's been moved from foster family to foster family more times than he can count, made intentionally to feel disposable, for the sake of creating a perfect soldier) has been replaced with this new pain, this fear, not even for himself, but for Otacon, for the gaping hole he realizes he'll leave in Otacon's life if something's to happen?

At what point do you think Snake realized that he'd turned a regular civilian into a mercenary, in mind if not body?

At what point do you think Otacon realized he'd fundamentally taken a US military asset and broken it over his knee?

Leonardo with a Rainbow Brite sweater? I have no fashion sense, I just think he'd like Rainbow Brite. Not a very good request so please ignore otherwise!
